About Industrial Pull Wire Safety Switches For Emergency Stop Applications
Safety limit switches with rope
The safety limit switches with rope and manual reset, represents the best solution to make available the emergency stop along all the production line perimeter. Available in various sizes, head orientation and contacts configuration. One switch is able to guarantee the safety of the perimeter for lengths up to 25 meters, thanks also to accessories like stay bolts, rope clamps, fixing clamps, springs and rope eyes. The manual reset device makes the safety limit switches with rope by COMEPI, suitable for the emergency stop, according to the standards in force.
Reliable Emergency Stop for Industrial ConveyorsThese Pull Wire Safety Switches provide a secure emergency stop function across extensive conveyor lengths. With up to 100 meters of braided steel wire, operators can instantly halt machinery in emergency situations, minimizing risk and enhancing workplace safety. The robust construction and IP67 rating ensure consistent performance even in dusty or wet environments.
Highly Durable Construction and PerformanceEngineered from die-cast aluminum alloy and finished with powder coating, the switch resists harsh industrial conditions. It boasts a mechanical life exceeding 1,000,000 actuations and electrical endurance up to 150,000 cycles at rated load. Its shock and vibration resistance further equip it for demanding environments.
Clear Status Indication and Manual ResetA mechanical flag indicator quickly shows the switch status at a glance, while the manual reset lever ensures positive re-engagement after activation. The snap action and fast response time below 20ms guarantee immediate reaction in emergencies.
FAQ's of Industrial Pull Wire Safety Switches For Emergency Stop Applications:
Q: How does the pull wire safety switch function in emergency stop applications?
A: The safety switch uses a braided steel wire-up to 100 meters long-which, when pulled in an emergency, instantly actuates the snap-action mechanism to interrupt machinery. This provides immediate machine stoppage across extended conveyor lengths, enhancing reaction speed and operator safety.
Q: What are the installation options and where can the switch be mounted?
A: The switch is designed for either surface or panel mounting, with a compact size of 185mm x 65mm x 80mm and a weight of 1.5kg. Its IP67 protection allows installation in wet or dusty locations, making it versatile for various industrial conveyor systems.
Q: When should the mechanical flag indicator and manual reset lever be used?
A: After activation, the mechanical flag indicator visually signals an emergency stop, alerting operators to the interruption. The manual reset lever must then be used to reset the switch and safely restore operation, preventing automatic restart and ensuring proper incident handling.
Q: What are the benefits of the braided steel wire and die-cast aluminum alloy construction?
A: The braided steel wire provides high tensile strength and longevity, ideal for industrial environments. The die-cast aluminum alloy housing ensures toughness, superior resistance to impacts, and longevity even in demanding conditions, supporting over one million mechanical operations.
Q: How does the electrical performance contribute to safety and reliability?
A: Equipped with SPDT snap action contacts rated up to 10A and 250V AC/500V DC, the switch delivers robust electrical endurance (150,000 cycles), low contact resistance (50m), and high insulation resistance (100M at 500V DC), ensuring safe and stable operation.
Q: Where is this product most commonly used and who provides it?
A: This pull wire safety switch is primarily employed in conveyor emergency stops within factories and industrial plants. It is available through distributors, exporters, importers, suppliers, and traders in Italy, providing wide access for safety retrofits and new installations.
